probably from FTA (failure to appear).

just call the courthouse for the county for which you were ticketed. they probably didn't process the payment yet, or it was still in the mail when your time expired.

fix it tickets are just a way to screw up your life. I spent 5 months of stressful time getting a vehcle code corrected all for a busted headlight.

They gave me the VC for impeding traffic LOL! yeah right.

authorities mess up/F with you via paperwork.

Just go in to the court house. My guess is things crossed in the mail and you're clear. They process the paperwork to stress you out and cost you money a lot faster than they do to end that stress.

It's a much smaller deal than you think. I wouldn't go freakin out and expect DOG the bounty hunter to come kick your door in.

do you think Tony Montana from Scarface would have cared about such a letter. Just deal with it the right way.

as long as you mailed it before the date you are cool. Getting them to fix it on their end won't be easy tho.

It's probably just them playing an April Fool's joke on you. I wouldn't worry about it.

Get on it asap because if it gets back to the DMV they will suspend your license and then the sh-t storm will only swirl from there.Good luck
